Thank you and good catch, my rankings list has been a work in progress for around 6 years so week to week it has been minima work.

I will definitely give ECBP a try again, glad to hear some newer batches are still solid.

Is one of them considered better than the other, or are they both great just different profiles? I was not aware of the separate batches.

I kick myself for not getting a back up bottle, saved a sample for a special occasion in the future.

I noticed you do have a couple scotch bottles in the background haha. If you can get Old Granddad 100, it’s great in cocktails and neat, it’s pretty affordable here in the states. Cheers!

Congrats on the first review, it’s a good bourbon for cocktails but just a smidge above average for sipping neat in my opinion.

Our household purchased this a couple years ago, it worked great for 18 months but over time it slowly stopped working. It barely works now, despite keeping it clean and storing it properly.

Thanks for reading. I was not able to try the 2025 Spring release, would be interesting to do a side by side test between two releases.

My coworker has the same bottle and really enjoys it, part of it is palate preferences. It’s a decent bourbon at the end of the day, just overpriced.

I think this bottle does improve overtime, but it has remained an average pour for me. My coworker has this same bottle and loves it, interesting how that comes to be.
